“We realized that the version of the world they rendered for us was not the world they really believed in...”
Jeffrey Eugenides, The Virgin Suicides

Jeffrey Eugenides
“That was when Leonard realized something crucial about depression. The smarter you were, the worse it was. The sharper your brain, the more it cut you up.”
Jeffrey Eugenides, The Marriage Plot

Jeffrey Eugenides
“The girls took into their own hands decisions better left to God. They became too powerful to live among us, too self-concerned, too visionary, too blind.”
Jeffrey Eugenides, The Virgin Suicides

Jeffrey Eugenides
“Everyone struggles against despair, but it always wins in the end. It has to. It's the thing that lets us say goodbye.”
Jeffrey Eugenides, Middlesex

Jeffrey Eugenides
“I was thinking how amazing it was that the world contained so many lives. Out in these streets people were embroiled in a thousand different matters, money problems, love problems, school problems. People were falling in love, getting married, going to drug rehab, learning how to ice-skate, getting bifocals, studying for exams, trying on clothes, getting their hair-cut and getting born. And in some houses people were getting old and sick and were dying, leaving others to grieve. It was happening all the time, unnoticed, and it was the thing that really mattered.”
Jeffrey Eugenides, Middlesex
